THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1930, * PAGE SEVENTEEN aE i Ba i 2 R 2 BHA : Affect It is a curious and probably signi- icant fact that economic depression joes not affect the entertainment susiness, says the Theatre Guild ine.

The "Fox companies, which were left by the stock market crash stranded with short-term notes due to the tune of ninety-two million dollars, arranged that little matter and promptly began showing huge profits.

On the strength of this, are we not jus- tified mm formulating an economie principle to the effect that the great mass of people regard theatrical en- tertainment as a necessity rather than as a luxury.

ALIEN SMUGGTING HAS TRAGIC SIDE Cherished Plans of Eur- opeans Thwarted by Wary Inspectors Newport, Vi--~There is more than the ordinary share of life's tragedies lamong those who seek to slip from Eastern Canada into the United States. Many a case that is a rou- tine duty to the roving immigration inspector patrolling the international boundary throws a dark shadow across the whble lives of men and families and sets at naught weeks, months and sometimes years of plan- ning. - These pathetic figures are not Canadians. They are not even the professional immigration, liquor and narcotic smugglers who will take a load of any kind of contraband into either country for the profit they can make. They are generally people from Edrope who have relatives in America and who, having failed leg- ally to enter the United States, have sought the apparently broad invita- tion of 3,000 miles of boundary-line jto bring a broken family together | again, One pathetic case dealt with at Newport was that of an Italian. He | had come to Boston as a stowaway. But he was caught and deported. From Italy he went to France whence { + smuggling ring took him with oth- ers to Cuba and eventually landed lim on the Florida coast. A brother mm St, Johnsbury, Vt, succeeded in to be detected. The brother in St. Johnsbury, legally in the country, had spent his 'savings--nearly 3,000 lire--to bring his brother into the country. The second brother was de- ported once more after both had been prosecuted for conspiracy to violate the passport control act. Other immigrants have come to Canada, apparently as bona fide settlers in that country, They have studied the speech, dress and man- nerisms of Americans and at last, feeling themselves qualified, have undertaken to pass into the country as Americans returning from a trip to Canada, only to be detected and deported, their years of planning thwarted. Almost equally sorry figures are Chinese, taken in charge by profes- sional smugglers, herded like sheep, unable to talk or understand what 1s going on, being brought into the country. to augment the workers needed in launderies and restaurants, Sometimes as much as $2,000 or $3,000, officials say, is spent in bringing one Chinese to Boston or New York. The Chinese then is a virtual slave until he has worked ott the entire cost of bringing him into the United States. If the professional smugglers are pursued by immigration officers they abandon without a qualm the men in their charge to make good their own escape. Canada's own immigration laws are a barrier to many of these would-be immigrants but enough evade the Canad restrictions to be a prob- lem to the immigration men, SWEET NEWS from the Queen Mary Chocolate Shop of 'luxury. are now classed as a necessity not a FOR THE LADIES Boxed chocolates from 30c to $5.00 per box.

Dr, Joseph Colt Bloodgood, director of the research fund bearing his name, said that in 1913 there was not a single verified case of cancer of the bone cured by any treatment. In 1921 but four per, cent of the less than 500 cases registered at Johns Hopkins Hospital were listed as cures, and these 'by amputation only. Figures of cures for 1930, he sai different types, and two methods of treatment other than amputation have been found successful, "There is only one explanation," said Dr. Bloodgood, "and that is the people have been educated through the press of the importance of im- mediate x-ray examination whenever there is any symptom of pain or swelling in the region of a bone or joint." The meeting of x-ray specialists, surgeons and pathologists was the third of the kind here, but this was more widely attended, approximately 20,000 invitations having been sent out. The expenses were met by the Chem- ical Foundation of which Francis P. Garvan is president. vary from 11 to 41 per cent on the' Other similar meetings probably will be held from year to year, it was announced. The approximately 300 present at the first of the three day sessions after hearing addresses, started mak- ing diagnoses somewhat as they once did in Medical School. But instead of using microscopes, lantern slides of cases of cancer or tumor ofthe bone were projected on a screen, and those present filled out cards giving their diagnosis of each specimen. "The chief object of this meeting is teaching, and every individual pre- sent is given the same opportunity to make a diagnosis and advise treat- ment in about 90 actual cases of bone diseases and tumor in which we are pretty certain the diagnosis in the laboratory is correct," Dr. Bleodgood said. - The announcement of the percent- age of the cures was based on re- cords of more than 3,000 cases col- lected in the last 40 years and now listed in the Copley Surgical Patho- logical Laboratory of John Hopkins. The material for the study came from the same source, ra After stating the difficulty of diag- nosis of bone cancer #fter x-ray ex- amination, Dr. Bloodgood said that "no matter how well this subject is being taught in the medical schools, new knowledge is being obtained every year." "Demonstrations on these three days," he added, "are in reality an experimental attempt to find out the best way to teach post-graduate stu- dents in large numbers, to give them at the least expense of time and money, the greatest amount of know- ledge which they can retain and car- ry back with them in their practice for the benefit of their patients, and in this instance to aid in the control of one of the chief causes of death today-~cancer." ELEPHANT THEFTS WORRY CEYLON Beasts Taken to Farms and Hired Out by the Mahouts Colombo, Ceylon~Elephant steal- ing is on the increase in Ceylon. It is seldom that the Mahouts endeavor to sell the beasts, owing to the dif- ficulties of obtaining the necessary documents or bills of sale, but in- stead the keepers take the stolen animals to some remote part of Cey- fon and hire out their services. Elepehants are in great demand here on the farm and in the forest where they are used for dragging baulks of timber down the hills. A big elephant appears to like the heavy work in the logging camps. Dragging a little native plough over a field all day seems beneath his dig- nity and it sort of humiliates him, but in piling lumber or something like that where he has to use his brain he is a much more willing worker. P. D. Madugalle, of Kotuagedera, appeared in the Matale court on be- half of the elephant owners, urging that more severe sentences be im- posed upon Mahouts who made a practice of running away with the elephants in their trust. Mr. Madu- galle explained that he had lost three elephants this year, and he preferred charges against his former keeper, Ganegedera Punchi Banda, of Karaliadde, who had been work- ing one of his best elephants in a lumber camp for months The elephant was recovered but Banda had disappeared. MS LAREN'S A QUALITY PRODUCT , PACKED INA MODERN SUNLIT PLANT THE PULLET RATION A definite plan of feeding is neces- sary to insure best 'results from lay- ing pullets, poultry expert; of the Dominion Department of Agriculture advise. The well balanced ration in- cludes scratch grain, mash green feed, grit, shell, certain supplemen- tary vitamine feeds, and plenty of fresh, clean water. There are, how- ever, a wide variety of materials which go to make up this ration. Home: mixing of suitable formula is recommended. Wheat, oats and corn or barley go into the making of a good mash. Fifteen per cent of animal feeds, one per cent of salt, and an equal quantity of cod liver oil, should be mixed in. Grit and oyster shell should be available in hoppers at all times. Alfalfa, cover, or cabbage' make excellent green feeds, and where these are not available alfalfa leaf meal may be used. Raw potatoes, field carrots and mangels make succulent supple- mentary feeds, The feeding of cod liver oil supplies the vitamine which prevents rickets, ' URGE FALL PLOWING As the effective measure at this season of the year which will assis€ in the control and eradication of & white grub outbreak of serious pros portion in Eastern Ontario, the Ene tomological Branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculture, urge fall plowing and frequent discing from now until freeze up. Plowing helps to break up the grub cells; exposes them to attacks by natural enemies such as the crow, star-nosed mole; and skunk; retards the grub's "dig ging down" for winter, and exposes the grub cells to frost which kifls them . effectively. The outbreak started apparently in the eastern townships in 1927, moved across the St. Lawrence to Eastern Ontario by flight of the June Beetle, parents of the white grub, in 1928, and this yea# crossed the Ottawa eastward infest ing a large area adjacent to Oka getting him to that town only, at last, | > Muskrat, Sable, WHITE FLANNELETTE NIGHT GOWNS, long sleeves ...........
